À propos de ce film

Shocking viewers at the Venice Film Festival, The Isle is the haunting yet gruesome masterpiece by controversial director Kim Ki-duk. In a remote fishing ground where people go to forget their deepest problems, a mysteriously silent woman acts as groundkeeper, supplier of food and beverage, and sometimes offers her own body to the lonely fishermen. One day, an ex-cop who is on the run for the murder of his lover arrives at the isle looking for a place to hide. Soon the odd couple starts to develop an unusually intimate relationship.

Notes et avis

Not one of his best at all. Not nearly as engaging as most of his other works. Unclear idea and awkwardly rendered. He got better as the years went on.

Weird but...im not sure if I liked it or not. It's a little different.

Amazing. BEAUTIFUL. Fish hooks!
